Just a reminder on how to post Images....
The site accepts image sizes up to 4meg but will automatically re-size them to 450pixels wide which takes a bit of time. If you can resize any images you want to upload to 450 pixels wide first the process is a lot faster.
1. Click on a 'reply' button and then click the image icon in the reply box NB: there is no image icon in the 'Quick Reply' box.
 1. You have a couple of options. You can insert a picture (click in you post where you want the image to go) from your list you have aleady uploaded to the Fishing Website server (see the list under File Name - click on the image from your list then go to step 6) or you can select a new picture from your hard drive by clicking the browse button......
 3. If you are loading a new picture select the one you want from your hard drive by double clicking on it.
 4. ClicYou'll then see this screen - click the 'Upload' button
 5. You'll get this message - click OK. If you're uploading a large file it will take a while to upload and then be resized. Large files will take even longer on dial-up and may crash and burn..... not recomended.
 6. You'll then see the picture you want to insert into your post. Just click OK and it's done
 Job done!

| As simple as all that seems,I still cannot post pictures.I click on the tree ,but the screen that comes up does not have a "browse" button-so I cannot select anything.I have just had my better half have a look and she has given up also.Any further advice?? |

| Falco, it may have something to do with being a new user. If I remember correctly, you need to have a number of posts (20?) before you could post images. Mods, please help. |

Is there still a restriction on posting images until you have a certain number of posts? Likewise don't seem to have the Browse option.
Is it really necessary to have this restriction??

make sure your images are not too large and saved as a jpeg file. Try uploading pics to a photo share server like myphotothing.com then use that to insert images. Also right click on your photo folder and make sure you can share on network(not sure if this helps but it prob does) It may be because of an anti virus, firewall etc. Or like me...I had a virus and have spent all night getting rid of it. nasty little bug, wouldnt let me do anything on the net without pop up windows spamming my pc so it ran sooo slow. Virus was spamming my pc with dlls. |

On moderated forums Moggy - we have new software that can switch all your posts to "to be approved by a mod" status. Guess what? - You're the first!
There's a few areas that are on approval only - the two competitions we've got running and all the Fishing News forums. Keeps them on track.

Just wondering how many posts you have to have before you can upload pictures?
My wife collected a couple of shellfish today washed up on Omaha beach at high tide while I tried to wide out through 4 waves to set a pot for paddle crab. I think they might be ruheruhe (trough shell) and was curious if this is right, if they are edible and legal to take. There were about 20 washed up but I chucked most back as the were about 3-4cm.

Hmmm I can't post a picture either. Seems to be a common complaint. I can get it uploaded as per instruction but it won't "Preview". Any ideas folks? Am on IE7 (I think). Edit: I have solved my problem. I re-named the pic when I downloaded it from phone. Apparently the forums File Manager doesn't like that. I re-downloaded it with the original name and it has uploaded and views ok. Lesson learned. Cheers.

Since the latest upgrade it is a lottery for me whether I can successfully post a pic. The pics are all small sized jpegs, I can load them to the fishnet drive but transferring from there to the fishnet webpage is a totally lucky dip, sometimes it take 4,5 m ore than 6 attempts. Sometimes I quit come back try ahgain, no go and then wiat and wait, try again and sometimes success. I even tried renaming the pics to short names... I just tried right now and same again I gave up after 5 attempts.
